If on the source I have a new column, the script generated by SqlPackage.exe recreates the table on the background with moving the data into a temp storage. If the table is big, such approach can cause issues.
Example of the script is below: in the source project I added columns [MyColumn_LINE_1] and [MyColumn_LINE_5].
Is there any way I can make it generating an alter statement instead?
BEGIN TRANSACTION;
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE;
SET XACT_ABORT ON;
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tmp_ms_xx_MyTable] (
[MyColumn_TYPE_CODE] CHAR (3) NOT NULL,
[Code] ....
The same script is generated regardless the table having data or not, having a clustered or nonclustered PK.
i have 2 tables (both containing the same column names/datatypes), say table1 and table2.. table1 is the most recent, but some rows were deleted on accident.. table2 was a backup that has all the data we need, but some of it is old, so what i want to do is overwrrite the rows in table 2 that also exist in table 1 with the table 1 rows, but the rows in table 2 that do not exist in table one, leave those as is.. both tables have a primary key, user_id.
any ideas on how i could do this easily?
thanks

Hello,
Probabaly a silly question yet as a DOTNET developer, I'm trying to simulate DTS when for example, I don't have permission to perform DTS on a production server.
In particular and interested regards caching of rows before the service decides to flush the buffer and write to the target table. Safe to assume DTS is cursor based?
hi all,
i have a dts that copies table contents from remore server to local server.
remote table:
ItemID|name
1 |name1
2 |name22
3 |name33
local table:
ItemID|name
1 |name1
2 |name2
i want that the dts will only copy the new rows( aka. row with ItemID = 3) and leave the other rows a they are.
can any one help me create such a dts.
please help!
I have the following table:
Table name: RR
columns:
Subject (varchar (35), Null)
Topic (varchar (35), Null)
RD (text, null)
RR (text, null)
Picture (varchar (50), Null)
Video (varchar (50), Null)
RRID (int, Not Null)
TSTAMP (datetime, Null)
RRCount (int, Not Null)
This table stores common information used in resolving technical problems based on Subject and Topic. However, I've now created a Subject/Topic where I want to copy all the data that corresponds to another Subject/topic.
Example:
There are 35 rows that correspond to Subject = 'Publisher01' and Topic = 'Subcategory03'. I want to create 35 new rows that contain the same RD and RR data, but have Subject = 'Publisher02' and Topic = 'Subcategory07'. Highest current RRID = 5008
I cannot figure out how to write that query. I apologize in advance for the fact that this is, no doubt, a seriously beginner question.
hi all
i have two databases on two different machines.
both databses r having same names.
i want to copy data from the table in other database to table in databse on my machine .
how can i do this.
i will be very thankful to receive help.
Can i do something like this
INSERT INTO CITIBANK.dbo.Contract (*)
FROM exec sp..
where sp is the stored procedure ?
Or do i need to specify all the colums where the * is ?
and if so is it the columns from the SP or the colums
from the destination table ?
Hello,
I have a Data Flow Source that uses a SQL Command to pull data. In the SQL statement, I used CAST to change all varchar types to Nvarvchar to suit MS Access. I can preview the data from the source. In testing, the SQL statement only pulls about ten records.
I have a Microsoft 2000 Access database table as a destination. Data in each column in the table is required, and all columns have defaults.
I also have a grid data viewer set up. I have the DefaultBufferMaxRows set to 2 so that I can see data going across. When I execute this dataflow, no data is transfered to the Access database table. No data shows up in the dataviewer. There are no errors. The 'Execution Results' tab does not show errors, but indicates that zero rows were transfered. There are no warnings.
How do I begin to isolate the problem? The following is the SQL Statement in the Data Flow Source. Thank you for your help! - cdun2

I have "inherited" a project working on a SQL 2000 database. The project calculates commissions based on data from an invoice header table and an invoice details table. The goal is to extract data from the primary database tables, perform limited manipulations, and store the resultant data into a table in a different database for reference and reporting. I have the query complete that extracts and manipulates the data, but I am stuck in trying to add this data to the final storage/reporting table. I would also like to do error checking to be certain that a record is not "re-inserted" from the source data to the destination table. Thanks in advance, Barry

Is it possible to easily copy data from one table to another if the data types don't match. I know you can do a INSERT INTO table1(col1,col2) SELECT (col2,col7) FROM table2 if the data types match but is there a way to do this if they don't. I'm not trying to copy date times into bit fields or anything. I just have an old table that I built when I really didn't know what I was doing now I at leastthink I have a better understanding of what data types to use, so I was wanting to move the data in the orignal table to my new one. Most of the fields in the olddatabase are text datatypes and the new database is nvarchar(50) data types. Thanks for any suggestions.
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I got a situation here.....
From a source table (in SERVER1) I get ids of candidates and from another source (in SERVER2) I get their CVs (text files stored in various Folders). My destination table (in SERVER3) has two fields, CandidateId & CandidateCV.
I have to transfer the data in above fashion for nearly 1 million records.
How can I write a DTS package which picks up the text file from SERVER2 based on the CandidateId which comes from SERVER1? Probably I need some kind of looping mechanism which changes the candidate id & his CV file.
Can anyone help???
Thanks...

How do I do this? Thank you in advance for any help you can give me!
An SSIS package to transfer data from a DB instance on SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2000 is extremely slow. The package uses an OLEDB Source to OLEDB Destination for data transfer which is basically one table from sql server 2005 to sql server 2000. The job takes 5 minutes to transfer about 400 rows at night when there is very little activity on the server. During the day the job almost always times out.
On SQL Server 200 instances the job ran in minutes in the old 2000 package.
Is there an alternative to this. Tranfer Objects task does not work as there is apparently a defect according to Microsoft. Please let me know if there is any other option other than using a Execute 2000 package task or using an ActiveX Script to read records from one source and to insert them into the destination source, which I am not certain how long it might take and how viable will that be?
Any inputs will be much appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi all,
I copied the following code from MSDN2 bcp Utility:
bcp AdventureWorks.Sales.Currency2 in Currency.dat -T -c
and executed it in my C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsBinn>.
I got the following errors:
SQLState = 08001, NativeError = 2
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [2].
SQLState = HYT00, NativeError = 0
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Login timeout expired
SQLState = 08001, NativeError = 2
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.
Please help and tell me what wrong with this BCP execution or with the database, and how to make this BCP working.
Thanks,

I Have a problem when copying data from one server to another in Management studio, I need to create and exact copy of the original because of primary key relationships,
Currently when I export the data the data will run through an insert type statement, which means that all PKs are reissued, rather than being duplicated from the original, How can I be sure that the data will be copied exactly how it is on one server to the other.
i've created a package that will copy data from an oracle table to a sqlserv table (that table elemenst are identical), when i click on the connecting line between the two connections it executes without any errors, but nothing is copied, when i try to execute the package i'm getting an error... where can i go to find out what's causing the error. There is no error message or number returned from dts, all i get is a red 'x' . There are 1236 records that need to be inserted and when i get the red 'x' it tells me 1236 records have been processed. When i click on tranformations and select test, it works, but since it's a test nothing is actually copied. I've got other packages that i've created that do the same thing with other tables and they work. I tried just copying one record and that worked, so i assumed it must be data dependent, i've checked all the fields and made sure they weren't null, i've checked to make sure there aren't duplicate primary key records. Without knowing what the actual error is I'm stumped ???

Hi, I'm pretty new to SQL so am still learning the syntax etc.
I have 2 tables, one called Railways and another called Sheet1$ (an import from Excel).
In Railways, I have 5 Fields:
ID
First_Name
Last_Name
File
Full_Name
At the moment, all are populated with data (300 records) but Full_Name is showing values of <NULL>.
I want to populate Full_Name with the Data in Sheet1$ which has the field Full_Name (which is populated with the data I need)
What is the query I need to run to get SQL to copy the data from Sheet1$ (Full_Name) into Railways (Full_Name) - replacing all of the <NULL> values?
I've tried using the import wizard but without success.
Thanks in advance.
just wondering how can i script out so that i can copy a table from a database but not the data itself..
.
I am assuming there is some functionality to copy and paste a table in sql server..however I am not seeing where I can do this what I want to do is this:
create table1 as select * from table 2;
Please let me know how I can create a new table as a replica of an existing table. Thanks so much!
Hi,o
I found an option to copy a table without having to script the table, now I can't find it. Is there an option to do this? When I selected the option, it didn't work. Any ideas? Also how do you turn off trace and statistics?
thx,

Hi,Whats the best and easiest way to copy a table from one database to another via ASP.net?I want to copy from SQL Server to Oracle. I have an ODBC connection for Oracle.I was thinking I could use a DataSet, but wasn't sure of the details on doing this. Am I off base on this?What I have so far..1) I can get the data from SQL Server into a DataSet.2) I can establish a connection to Oracle via ODBC and the database has the appropriate table structure.How do I 'use' the SQL Server DataSet to copy the data to Oracle?Thanks,Scott
